Notes

Drawing 43 shows the new Board of Trade and Privy Council Offices as in drawings 38-42, but here the Board of Trade Offices on Whitehall are extended and for the first time have a continuous columnar frontage (with three-quarter engaged columns). The columns on the frontage later became a matter of contention between Soane and the Treasury officials.
